(MENAFN- Tribal News Network) Peshawar – U.S. Consulate General Peshawar held an official opening ceremony for the Nowshera English Access Scholarship Program at the Serena Hotel in Peshawar. Consul General staff joined around 200 students, teachers, staff of the implementing NGO, the State Development Organization (SDO), and school administrators at the event to formally launch the new English program.

The U.S. Embassy-funded initiative provides English-language, civics, and leadership skills training to 14- to 18-year-old students from socio-economically underprivileged communities to help them succeed in their studies and later careers. In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, where Access began in 2008, there are over 2,000 graduates.

Access programs are underway in 24 Pakistani cities, including Swabi, Charsadda, Malakand, Mardan, and Mansehra.
